Wreaths Across America Mobile Education Exhibit (MEE) is coming to Marietta!

Wreaths Across America, in partnership with Cobb Veterans Memorial Foundation (CVMF), is proud to announce the Wreaths Across America Mobile Education Exhibit is coming to Marietta.The Wreaths Across America Mobile Education Exhibit is a unique, interactive “museum on wheels” that is traveling across the United States on a mission to bring America’s military service members and local communities together, while honoring our veterans and teaching patriotism.

The Exhibit represents the TEACH pillar of the Wreaths Across America mission, sharing information about the veterans and those who serve our country, and how everyone can play a part in remembering and honoring them. Inside the 48-foot trailer, visitors will have an opportunity to explore, honor our fallen veterans and learn more about Wreaths Across America. Wreaths Across America takes great pride in its mission to Remember, Honor and Teach. The mobile Education Exhibit will help to Teach, not only the next generations, but all local community members about the services and sacrifices of our nation’s military. During the interactive tour, you’ll also learn how the wreaths are made and why Wreaths Across America plays such a vital role in serving veterans and their families across our country.

There will be representatives at the Cobb Veterans Memorial Exhibit to show you the features of the memorial and how this park will play a vital role in the local community.
